The USDA also released supplemental guidance materials on the sampling, testing, and elimination components of the rule on Friday.

State legislatures have taken steps to establish state-licensed hemp programs and promote hemp as an agricultural product in recent years.
A wide range of products, including fibers, textiles, paper, building and insulation materials, cosmetics, animal feed, food and beverages, all can use hemp. While hemp and marijuana products are species of the cannabis plant, hemp is usually distinguished by its lower concentration of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). State legislators have considered several policy issues: the definition of hemp, licensing of producers, regulation and certification of seeds, state commissions, and legal protection of producers. At least 47 states have enacted laws to establish hemp production programs or allow hemp cultivation research.
Agriculture and Markets Act § 505-508 (McKinney 201 OK Stat. Statistics §§ 571.300 to 571.321 (201 Pa). Laws § 2-26-1 to 2-26-9 (201 S, C. Recreational use of cannabis is prohibited in the United States, however, state laws may vary.

Although the Senate version would have legalized hemp nationwide, the final farm bill leaves the responsibility of legalizing hemp to states. The other seventeen states have laws that restrict hemp cultivation or have strict regulations when it comes to THC content so that more access can be given to products that have more CBD (a less psychoactive component of cannabis). Uniformity could calm those who compare hemp to its illicit federal cousin and have moved away from working with hemp companies or have tried to ban hemp products. The rule determines that a producer does not commit a negligent violation if he produces plants that exceed the acceptable THC level of hemp, as long as he makes reasonable efforts to cultivate the plant and does not test for THC of more than 0.5% dry weight.

There are three different types of license under MDA, the producer license, the processor license and the third type of license, which applies to those who grow and process hemp.
